To the editor:

Apparently, the ACLU has too much money and not enough real work to do. That’s my conclusion after reading the article in the Jan. 30 Journal-World stating that they would sue two towns in the South for publicly displaying their belief in Jesus Christ as Lord. Aren’t there more worthy issues to pursue rather than trying to persecute Christians?

The popular (mis)interpretation of separation of church and state is far from that which was intended by our founding fathers. My suggestion is that they follow President Bush’s lead and participate in some community service, which would actually do some good for our nation and communities. Get real, ACLU. Quit wasting time and money on your pet doctrines, and help the rest of America build a “culture of responsibility.”
